FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates generally to a personal cleansing system. More particularly, to a portable bidet that provides a user with a discrete apparatus for washing and cleansing of their private areas after using the toilet. Additionally, the apparatus incorporates hydro soluble components that enable a user to conveniently dispose the particular components within a toilet bowl.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

It is well known in the art that conventional bidets provide a user with an alternative means to cleanse their genitalia, inner buttocks, and anus after utilizing the bathroom. Conventional bidets are fixed apparatuses that are typically located in close proximity to a toilet and usually found in the same bathroom or water closet as said toilet. A user seeking to cleanse themselves after using a toilet would position themselves over the bidet at which point the user would activate the apparatus, providing an arc of water that cleanses, sanitizes, and deodorizes the user's private areas. Although the use of a bidet is not as prevalent in some countries, their functionality is highly sought by certain users who greatly benefit from the alternative means to cleanse themselves after utilizing a toilet.

While most users in countries where bidets are not as prevalent utilize bathroom tissues to clean themselves after using the toilet, some users are unable to properly use bathroom tissues to achieve the same level of cleanliness. For some of these users, the ability to cleanse themselves with an arc of water is a significant improvement over utilizing bathroom tissue. For instance, some users suffering from limited mobility, caused by a medical condition or a traumatic injury are unable to reach or properly wipe themselves. In other cases, users may be unable to wipe using bathroom tissues due to a medical condition which makes using bathroom tissues a painful and unpleasant experience. In these situations, a bidet affords these users with a facilitated means to clean themselves. While these are not the only situations or reasons a user may opt to use a bidet over bathroom tissues to cleanse themselves, these users are still hindered by the limited availability of bidets.

Although bidets are still limited in their availability, many manufactures have been able to satisfy the needs of the various users who would benefit from using a bidet by developing apparatuses that function in a similar manner but are provided in a compact and portable configuration. These apparatuses, referred to as portable bidets, typically comprise a vessel containing a prepackaged solution, a nozzle to direct the flow of the solution, and a manner to expel the solution from the vessel. Additionally, these portable bidets can be constructed to be either disposable or reusable. While currently available portable bidets provide users with an alternative means to cleanse themselves similar to a conventional bidet, they are not without their drawbacks.

Some of the drawbacks associated with currently available portable bidets are due to their disposability and the materials used in their construction. For instance, one of the disadvantages associated with reusable portable bidets is the cleanliness of the apparatus after use. In some situations the apparatus may become soiled, requiring the user to thoroughly clean the exterior of the apparatus prior to storing it. While disposable portable bidets solve this particular issue, they unfortunately create other disadvantageous situations. Disposable portable bidets are typically single use apparatuses and as a result create a significant amount of waste that is harmful to the environment. Another disadvantage to using a disposable portable bidet results from the lack of a discrete way of disposing of the apparatus. In many situations a user would have to dispose of the apparatus in a receptacle that may be viewable to others.

Therefore it is the object of the present invention to provide a personal cleansing system that is constructed of both disposable and reusable components, wherein the disposable components can be safely discarded within a toilet bowl after use. Additionally, the present invention utilizes a hydro soluble material in the construction of the disposable components that allows them to be discretely and safely discarded in a toilet bowl after use. The hydro soluble material utilized by the present invention dissolve quickly when submerged in water and poses little risk of clogging or damaging the any associated plumbing or fixtures.

Referring to FIG. 5, in the present invention the lateral wall 7 comprises a plurality of guide channels 8. The plurality of guide channels 8 stabilize and direct the plurality of channel mounts 26 of the plunger plate 25. Furthermore, the plurality of guide channels 8 houses several exposed components of the locking mechanism 18 and ejection mechanism 15. The plurality of guide channels 8 is positioned radially along the surface of lateral wall 7 adjacent to the fluid chamber 21. Each of the plurality of guide channels 8 comprises a lock channel 9, a flow channel 10, and an ejector channel 11. The flow channel 10 positioned between the lock channel 9 and the ejector channel 11. The lock channel 9 forms a right angle with the flow channel 10. The ejector channel 11 also forms a right angle with the flow channel 10 but opposite to the orientation of the lock channel 9. Each of the ejector channels 11 are positioned coradially to one another on the lateral wall 7. Each of the ejector channels 11 are positioned adjacent to the attachment mount 23. Each of the lock channels 9 are positioned coradially to one another on the lateral wall 7. Each of the lock channels 9 are positioned adjacent to the indicator dial 24.

In the present invention the latching mechanism 12 comprises a plurality of retractable latches 13 and a latch activator 14. The latch activator 14 is positioned concentrically on the attachment mount 23. The plurality of retractable latches 13 is positioned coradially on the attachment mount 23.

The locking mechanism 18 comprises a valve assembly 19 and a plurality of valve activators 20. The valve assembly 19 is bistately coupled with the fluid opening 22. The plurality of valve activators 20 are coradially positioned within in the plurality of lock channels 9. The valve activators 20 are operatively couple with the valve assembly 19.

The current embodiment of the present invention has three stages that provide a facilitated means of transportation, personal use, applicator disposal, and solution replenishing. All states are actuated by the rotation and movement of the plunger plate 25 and more specifically the positioning of the plurality of channel mounts 26 within in the plurality of guide channels 8. The three stages are classified as the locked stage, the flow stage, and the ejection stage.

The locked stage is activated by the rotation of the plurality of channel mounts 26 into the lock channels 9. The locked stage provides users with the ability to transport the personal cleansing system without accidental spills. Furthermore, the locked stage provides the user with a reduced profile for the present invention by removing the detachable handle 28 from the plunger plate 25. The locked state occurs when the channel mounts 26 align with the lock channels 9 and actuate the locking mechanism 18 by engaging the valve activators 20. The valve activators 20 being operatively couple with the valve assembly 19 causes the valve assembly 19 to close the fluid opening 22. The locking mechanism 18 causes the plurality of ejectors 16 to retract within the attachment mount 23. Additionally rotation of the detachable handle 28 causes the indicator dial 24 to rotate and become coincident with the adjacent markings that denote the positioning of the plurality of channel mounts 26 as being in the lock channel 9. When in the locked stage the detachable handle 28 can be safely detached from the plunger plate 25. It should be noted that the detachable handle 28 and the handle mount 27 have a particular interaction which allows the detachable handle 28 to be able to disconnect from the handle mount 27 when in the locked stage.

Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the flow stage is activated by the rotation of the plurality of channel mounts 26 into the flow channels 10. The flow stage allows for the fluid within the fluid chamber 21 to be extruded from the fluid opening 22. Additionally, the flow stage allows the user to replenish the solution within the fluid chamber 21. The flow stage is initiated by the attachment of the nozzle 1 to the cylinder body 6. The attachment of the nozzle 1 to the cylinder body 6 begins by aligning the fluid channel 5 with the fluid opening 22. The plurality of latch connectors 3 and the plurality of ejector mounts 4 are then aligned with the plurality of retractable latches 13 and the plurality of ejectors 16, respectively. The attachment mount 23 is then sleeved by the cylinder mount 2. The cylinder mount 2 actuates the latching mechanism 12 by engaging the latch activator 14 causing the retractable latches 13 to engage the latch connectors 3. The plurality ejectors 16 are activated by plurality of ejector mounts 4. With the nozzle 1 in place, the detachable handle 28 is connected to the plunger plate 25 by way of the indicator dial 24. The detachable handle 28 is then rotated causing the plurality of channel mounts 26 to disengage the plurality valve activators 20. With the plurality of valve activators 20 being disengaged the valve assembly 19 changes positioning allowing fluids to pass through the flow opening. Additionally rotation of the detachable handle 28 causes the indicator dial 24 to rotate and become coincident with the adjacent markings that denote the positioning of the plurality of channel mounts 26 as being in the flow channel 10. The plurality of channel mounts 26 are then made coincident with the flow channels 10. Pressure is then applied to the detachable handle 28 causing the plurality of channel mounts 26 to move along the flow channel 10 from the lock channel 9 towards the ejector channels 11. The movement of the plunger plate 25 compresses the solution in the fluid chamber 21 resulting in the solution being ejected through the fluid opening 22 and into the fluid channel 5 of the nozzle 1. The flow of the solution and the direction of the flow can be adjusted by the users to meet their personal preference. The flow stage terminates when the plurality of channel mounts 26 become coincident with the ejector channels 11.

The ejection stage is activated by the rotation of the plurality of channel mounts 26 into the ejector channel 11. The ejection stage provides users with a facilitated means to discard the hydro soluble nozzle 1 after use. Prior to activating this stage a user would orient the nozzle 1 in the direction of the toilet bowl. The ejection stage occurs when the plurality of channel mounts 26 align the ejector channel 11 and actuate the ejection mechanism 15 by engaging the ejection activators 17. The plurality of ejection activators 17 trigger the plurality of ejectors 16 which being operatively couple with the plurality of retractable latches 13 cause the plurality of retractable latches 13 to disengage from the plurality of latch connectors 3. The plurality of ejectors 16 are then released causing the hydro soluble nozzle 1 to be ejected. The hydro soluble nozzle 1 is then forcefully detached from the cylinder body 6. Additionally, rotation of the detachable handle 28 causes the indicator dial 24 to rotate and become coincident with the adjacent markings that denote the positioning of the plurality of channel mounts 26 as being in the ejector channel 11.

Referring to FIG. 7 and FIG. 8, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention the flow stage can additionally function with the refill device 29. This version of the flow stage differs in the attached device and the reversed movement of the plunger plate 25. This alternative version of flow stage is hereinafter referred to as the reverse flow stage. The attachment of the refill device 29 to the cylinder body 6 begins by aligning the refill fluid channel 34 with the fluid opening 22. The plurality of refill latch connectors 31 and the plurality of refill ejector mounts 32 are then aligned with the plurality of retractable latches 13 and the plurality of ejectors 16, respectively. The attachment mount 23 is then sleeved by the refill cylinder mount 30. The refill cylinder mount 30 actuates the latching mechanism 12 by engaging the latch activator 14 causing the retractable latches 13 to engage the latch connectors 3. The plurality ejectors 16 are compressed by the plurality of refill ejector mounts 32. With the refill device 29 in place, the detachable handle 28 is pulled back causing the plurality of channel mounts 26 to move along the flow channel 10 from the ejector channels 11 towards the lock channels 9. The movement of the plunger plate 25 creates a vacuum within the fluid chamber 21 causing the solution from the refill device 29 to be suctioned into the cylinder body 6. The suctioned solution is pulled from the refill fluid chamber 35 through the refill fluid channel 34 through the fluid opening 22 and into the fluid chamber 21. The negative pressure created by the suctioning of the solution from the refill device 29 is equilibrated by an air valve 33. The reverse flow stage is terminated by the plurality of channel mounts 26 becoming coincident with the lock channels 9 initiating the lock stage. At termination of the reverse flow stage the hydro soluble nozzle 1 is disengaged from the attachment mount 23, allowing the user to dispose of the spent refill device 29.

In the preferred embodiment of the present invention the hydro soluble nozzle 1 is made of a cellulose mixture comprised of sodium Carboxymethyl cellulose (SCMC) and wood pulp. This cellulose mixture provides the nozzle 1 a rigid construction that is dissolvable when immersed in water. Conventional paper products are typically made using a wood pulp mixture comprised mostly of cellulose. Cellulose consists of long chains of D-glucose units connected together through glycosidic bonds. Each _(D)-glucose unit contains three hydroxyl groups, each of which are capable of hydrogen bonding with the hydroxyl groups of adjacent molecules. Due to the ability for each _(D)-glucose subunit within a cellulose chain to form hydrogen bonds with an adjacent molecule on another chain, cellulose chains become tightly bound preventing their dissolution by water. Due to the insoluble nature of cellulose based paper products, a nozzle 1 constructed from traditional paper materials would carry the risk of damaging plumbing fixtures if discarded in a toilet. Unlike traditional paper products, paper products made from a cellulose mixture containing SCMC and wood pulp would be soluble in water. Cellulose mixture containing SCMC are able to exhibit this property through the chemical properties of SCMC. SCMC differs from cellulose in that a hydroxyl group on the _(D)-glucose unit is substituted with a sodium Carboxymethyl group resulting in reduced hydrogen bonding between adjacent cellulose chains. The substitution provides enough separation between adjacent cellulose chains to allow the passage of water molecules resulting in the dissolution of a component formed from the cellulose mixture. The cellulose mixture can vary the ratio of SCMC and wood pulp to produce varied rates of dissolution. The rate of dissolution intended for the hydro soluble nozzle 1 is between 5-20 seconds when fully immersed in water. The material composition with the intended rate of dissolution is available by Aquasol Corporation in the form of their Aquasol water soluble paper.

In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the fluid channel 5 and the exterior wall 36 of the hydro soluble nozzle 1 are exposed directly and indirectly to the extruded solution during the flow stage. To prevent the decomposition of the hydro soluble nozzle 1 during a functional stage, a coating of Ethylcellulose polymer is provided to delay the decomposition of the hydro soluble nozzle 1 until it is discarded into a toilet bowl. Ethylcellulose is a chemically stable polymer that is insoluble in water. The polymer is manufactured in varying degrees of viscosities. An ethylcellulose compound with a viscosity range between 3-5.5 mPa·s and applied to the fluid channel 5 and the exterior wall 36 of the hydro soluble nozzle 1 in a thin layer of 0.01-0.025 mm in thickness would provide an adequate temporary water barrier for the hydro soluble nozzle 1 while in the flow stage. The aforementioned chemical and physical properties of the ethylcellulose polymer would pose a low risk of damaging plumbing fixtures when flushed. When the hydro soluble nozzle 1 is used during the flow stage, the solution extruded from the fluid chamber 21 would pass through the fluid channel 5 contacting the ethylcellulose barrier. The exterior wall 36 would be thinly coated with ethylcellulose preventing the solution from dissolving the exterior wall 36 from possible splashing during the flow stage. When the hydro soluble nozzle 1 is discarded into the toilet bowl, the cylinder mount 2 provides a surface for the water molecules to react with the SCMC of the cellulose mixture. Additionally, the plurality of ejector mounts 4 can provide a passage for water to reach the interior of the hydro soluble nozzle 1.

In the current embodiment of the present invention the solution provided by the refill device 29 and contained within the fluid chamber 21 of the cylinder body 6 consists of a sterile saline solution. In particular the saline solution is normal saline which contains 0.90% w/v NaCl. The saline solution provides sufficient cleansing of a user's private area after using the toilet and is non-irritating. It should be noted that additional solutions can be utilized by the present invention as long as they are capable of safely cleansing the user's private area.

In current embodiment of the present invention the locking mechanism 18 consists of a plurality of valve activators 20 and a valve assembly 19. The locking mechanism 18 as described focuses mainly on the interactions between the plurality of valve activators 20 and the valve assembly 19 with the plurality of channel mounts 26 and the fluid opening 22, respectively. It should be understood that the specific operation of the locking mechanism 18 can be accomplished by various mechanism that utilize a similar interactions to achieve the binary state change of the valve assembly 19.

In current embodiment of the present invention the latching mechanism 12 consists of the latch activator 14 and the retractable latches 13. The latching mechanism 12 as described focuses mainly on the interaction between the plurality of retractable latches 13 and the latch activator 14 with the plurality of latch connectors 3 and the cylinder mount 2 of the hydro soluble nozzle 1, respectively. It should be noted that the specific operation of the latching mechanism 12 can be accomplished by various mechanism that utilize similar interaction to retract and engage the retractable latches 13 with the latch connectors 3. The retractable latches 13 can additionally be understood as any bistate fastening method that is activated and deactivated by the triggering of the latch activator 14.

In the current embodiment of the present invention the ejection mechanism 15 comprises a plurality of ejectors 16 and a plurality of ejection activators 17. The ejection mechanism 15 as described focuses mainly on the interaction between the plurality of ejection activators 17 and the plurality of ejectors 16 with the plurality of channel mounts 26 and the plurality of ejector mounts 4, respectively. It should be noted that the specific operation of the ejection mechanism 15 can be accomplished by various mechanisms that utilizes similar interactions to retract the retractable latches 13 and to release the ejectors 16 when the ejector activators are triggered, causing the nozzle 1 to be forcefully ejected from the cylinder body 6.

The intended use of the present invention is to allow the users to cleanse their private areas after using the bathroom. While this is the intended use of the present invention it should be noted that other instances where a user would require washing themselves can be adequately met through the utilization of the present invention. The present invention can be configured for use as a feminine hygiene product as well as an enema device. While not explicitly mentioned, the present invention can additionally use scented solutions to decrease odor and provide the users with an improved sense of cleanliness.
